People seem to forget how much more strict the calls are in international play as opposed to watching NHL every night. If you're gonna finish a check against someone's back into the boards, they're calling that every time.

[@einarsd4]

​@@jeremyrafuse5330The calls are unfair towards teams like Latvia, Norway, Germany, Denmark etc etc. And that's the problem. Refs will always let to teams like Canada, Sweden, Switzerland and Czechia to play much more freely and won't penalize them as much as underdog teams.

[@16bitmetal35]

The truth is its hard to compete if it's not your nation's sport; Canada has hockey for all ages; has a high cost as barrier to entry, is a very physical sport, you need to have enough ice rinks, coaches, instructors, training and a good handle on skating just to be able to play the game. Every region in Canada has at least 1 skating rink (there are 8 in my area alone), so if you can imagine how this would pan out for anyone who plays hockey, they will naturally be better players even if they don't play as much. Canada has the infrastructure for hockey more than most nations around the world comparatively. I have no doubt this sport would be very competitive if it was the same globally.

being both a finn and canadian, the rematch for finland and canada is going to be great. Always an interesting game. As for this game, I think you need to remember that countries like canada, finland, sweden, and USA have teams that consist of players who are already playing at proffessional skill level, if not entry NHL level, even though they are young, they are already on a different planet.

[@wastedbread8036]

What rematch ?

[@VoIcanoman]

@@wastedbread8036 I mean, I guess they could face each other in the semis or the gold medal game. Doesn't seem likely at this point, but you never know. Personally, I am more excited for a potential meeting vs. the Americans. It's always nuts when Canada and the USA meet in hockey, and unbelievably, in the last 20 years at the WJC, they've only met 4 times with gold on the line, and the Americans won every meeting (once in OT and once in a shootout...also 3 of the 4 tournaments in question were on Canadian home ice - Saskatoon, Montréal and Edmonton). So a little payback would be nice, especially given how good the American team is this year.
